Default B18c1 swap into 94 EG - Radiator question

I just swapped a b18c1 in my 94 SI Coupe. Just wondering whether the stock radiator will hold up or should I replace it. If i remember correctly, I can take the radiator from a DOHC delsol but there aren't too many delsol's being parted out up in alberta. Any other suggestions or tips.

Thanks in advance

Just find a local radiator supplier in your area. Call them up and you should be able to get a Del sol vtec or a EX automatic radiator, which are both dual core, and should be about 100 bucks. Are you in canada?? There is no 94 si coupe in america is why im asking.

I was worried about overheating cuz i wasn't sure whether the stock radiator was up for the task. As for my EG civic, in Canada, the SI was offered in a coupe with a d16z6.

I'm running my stock radiator in my 95 civic with a B18B1 it keeps it cool just fine, however you will have to do some radiator hose fabrication b/c the necks for the radiator hose on the motor are bigger than the ones on the radiator.
